North Dallas after forty

the long version

Fictitious pro football story told by a real NFL player. Peter Gent wrote two of the greatest sports fiction books ever, North Dallas Forty and The Franchise. Both were based on true characters and events and tore the curtain off the real NFL of the late '60s and early '70s. This book picks up where North Dallas Forty ended, and many of the same characters appear, along with new ones who were connected to events in the first novel.
